Although she's doing well at work, Erin is left shaken by having coffee thrown at her, and frightened by the threat, wonders about her future at the DPP.

Tracey assigns Ben a new case assisting Tony regarding a woman who is suspected of defrauding her chronically ill brother, for whom she is primary carer. When Tony refuses to work with Ben, Lina is brought in to take over... and what she discovers will potentially save a life and force her to question where her own loyalties lie with Andy.

Janet is close to going on maternity leave and to her dismay David has seen fit to swap her heavy work for shorter, more practical matters — including that of the wayward 'sunbathing penis'.

Miriam Mansie is keen to implement the budget cuts she's been threatening at the DPP, and David is left with no option but to choose one solicitor from each group to be let go.

Tatum's father Danny Novak arrives to chat with a terrified Richard about moving out, and tells Conrad and Tatum to sort things out. Richard takes solace in the company of Ben — and his luxury hotel suite.
